What is be lieved to have been the greatest Im migration of Its kind into tho Pa cific Northwest has been accomplish ed by James J. Hill In bringing in workmen on tho Portland & Seattle railway construction from St. Paul and the eastern centers. Employ ment agents estimate on a conser vative basis that 40,000 workmen have been Imported to this territory since work on the North Bank road was commenced. This great movement has been ac complished by offering free faro to the Pacific coast. The object of course was to fill the construction camps along tho Columbia, and tho only reason that the Hill lines have kept the invitation standing and so many have been brought west is that the men desert after working a time, changing to some other line of in dustry. However, many drift back to tho railroad work from timfc to time, and it is estimated that be tween 4,000 and 6,000 are now at work throwing dirt on the North Bank railroad.
